Neo,

Exactly what law in the constitution are they going to use to restrict private enterprise from moving jobs off shore?

What right does the US government have to tell me the founder of my own company to make widgets that I can not compete in the global sale of my goods.

By saying that you can not form a company over here and then farm it out later do you think that might styfle new startups. In other words when the next atari decides to try building a new product wont they just start the process off with foreign labor rather than risk laws restricting later movement for competetive reasons?

I do not like the idea of working for a company for years and then having my job go over seas. But I am not sure there is a sollution.

I do not know what the ultimate sollution is but I see no legal way for George or Kerry to force a corporation to say in the US.

I guess they could give them corporate welfare to remain competetive or give them tax breaks. But that seems to receive a cold reception on the part of democrats.
